An experiment was conducted with 48 Yorkshire x Berkshire
crossbred barrows to evaluate the influence of varying Calorie: protein ratios in high-fat rations on performance and carcass quality
of growing-finishing swine. Pigs were individually fed rations containing
three levels of fat (lard): 0, 15 and 30 percent. Each fat
level...
Our objective was to identify the biological response and the cross-talk between liver and mammary tissue after intramammary infection (IMI) with Escherichia coli (E. coli) using RNAseq technology. Sixteen cows were inoculated with live E. coli into one mammary quarter at ~4–6 weeks in lactation. For all cows, biopsies were...

This collection consists of autobiographical essays which center around my father,
my first husband, and my backyard. All of the pieces are recollections, and most occur
either from my study inside the house, or from the deck outside, looking at the yard. The
Preface is the story of how I...
This article is a review of the following work: PSYCHOLOGY OF TRAUMA 101. Lesia M. Ruglass and Kathleen Kendall-Tackett. Springer, 2015, 248 pp. Psychology of Trauma 101 is part of the Psych 101 Series that includes Motivation 101, Emotional Intelligence 101, and so forth. The goal, I infer, is to...
The primary goal of my studies was to elucidate the mechanisms for the well-recognized interaction between two nutrients, vitamins E and K. The outcomes from my studies assess mechanisms for adverse effects of vitamin E and provide novel information on mechanisms for vitamin K homeostasis. These findings will provide information...
The effect of sweeteners on fruit flavor perception was studied
through the use of fruitiness power functions for unsweetened and
sweetened model systems. In the first part of the study, two
isosweet concentrations of aspartame and sucrose were determined
and combined with five concentrations of orange and strawberry
flavorants. Fruitiness...
